Stun Gun Ban To End in NJ
The stun gun ban to end in New Jersey due to a 2016 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court declaring similar restrictions in Massachusetts to be unconstitutional.
Well it's better than pepper spray but it's a still a far cry from getting a regular carry permit in that state as it is still essentially no issue for law abiding residents. Some of the stun ban restrictions will include minors, felons and the mentally ill.
As expected (in New Jersey), some law officials are against the ruling entirely and some other LEO's want an Firearms ID Card to be required while others say that no permits or permission should be attached to this.
So when will the ban end? Over on Evan Nappen's Facebook page, comments say the ban ends today Oct 20. Those who don't know, Evan is the famous NJ gun attorney who is well versed on New Jersey's gun laws. He has helped out several clients in high profile cases that have achieved national attention.

New Jersey Second Amendment Society president Alexander Roubian said
“We were adamant about fighting to make sure there was no permits or permission from the government attached to this,” Roubian said, citing the 2015 murder of a South Jersey woman who was waiting for a firearms permit as reasoning. “We feel this is very important in regard to allowing people to protect themselves.”
